A place with a view. Its mine. I look at it as my sanctuary. The lake house. It is a healing place. It consumes all of my thoughts and takes a lot of my time. We bought it after months of house hunting. We bought it on a whim. We've built two houses already, so why not a third? We could only afford it because of all the work that needed to be done to it. But, we both fell in love with the view and could see the potential in the investment. Downsizing? No. Closer to grandsons? Yes. That place gave us a project. It brought unity. Cursing, maybe, but never a curse. She still had some glory left in her. Oh, the stories she could tell. We could add our own stories too. What more could we bring to the new thing than our own stories, our own time, our own treasures and our own lives? And we did.  A God thing? Perhaps! A place with a view for sure. Water therapy. On the road, again. We are busy people. The miles between where we had built our lives and where this thing w...

'But blessed is the one who trusts in Me alone          the Eternal will be his confidence.         He is like a tree planted by water,          sending out its roots beside the stream.      It does not fear the heat or even drought.          Its leaves stay green and its fruit is dependable, no matter what it faces.'  Jeremiah 17:7-8 (VOICE) Dear Father We are blessed to know You and when we lose that final battle, we look forward to being called home and hearing You say 'Well done my good and faithful servant. Enter into your rest.' With sadness in our hearts, we must acknowledge that she was an overcomer but the cruel hard fact is that she never made it through this time. We loved her and she will not be forgotten. She was a giver. She loved us. She was beautiful. She was laughter. She was wisdom. She was bl...

  “Because you have stood with me through all my trials and ordeals,   I give you your destiny : I am promising you the kingdom realm that the Father has promised me.   We will celebrate in this kingdom and you will feast with me at my table. And each of you will be given a throne, twelve thrones in all, and you will be made rulers on thrones to judge the tribes of Israel.”' Luke 22:28-30 (TPT ) Dear Father. From a few hundred followers then to millions and millions today. Look at how Your Kingdom has grown! You forecast a prediction, as to coming events or conditions for all eternal beings. Sonshine today. Cloudy skies tomorrow. This is the hour for the power and glory of the Lord to be revealed. Rain down on us Holy Spirit, rain down on us. Revive us as only You can. We are ready to receive Your fresh anointing. Heal Jan, one of your great soul winners today. Bring forth the day of the greatest harvest of souls in human history. Lord Jesus, for centuries th...

'doing all things in a beautiful and orderly way.' 1 Corinthians 14:49 (TPT The rule is simple, in worship and in life, all things should be done in a decent and orderly manner to build up the church family. Why question the method, detailing life, it's a proven way if the apostles condone it. If it works, then it is a good way in which to keep the peace, to tell the truth and to be orderly in church. Believing families ought to go to church to grow and learn spiritual things. A beautiful and orderly environment is a good one for growth and learning. Rule of thumb: if it is good for the church, and keeps up good behavior, order and decency among its members, then it should work in the same way at home as well. The way to spiritual health is through the physical. I feel what I see. A mess makes its way into my spirit. I need a clear space to have a clear mind. My space brings me peace and clarity when I have dealt with the clutter. It takes time to bring out ...

  “So above all, constantly chase after the realm of God’s kingdom and the righteousness that proceeds from him. Then all these less important things will be given to you abundantly. ' Matthew 6:33 (TPT) Dear Father Your kingdom is in me, so I must seek You and Your righteousness, the internal, spiritual, greater things first, in order to live according to Your Will and Your Way. You came for me, so that I might live my life full of hope and peace and be a blessing to others and have life and have it more abundantly.  You died for me and redeemed me from the curse and I must place You above all things and make You the head over all things, even before the external things. You love me and want me to prosper. You promised to make me plenteous and good. I am Your child. All that I have is a gift from You. I place my trust in You. You supply all of my needs according to Your riches in Glory through Christ. I look forward to hearing You say 'Good job, prayer warrior...

' Now when Joshua was traveling near the city of Jericho, he saw a man standing in front of him with a sword drawn and ready. Joshua (stepping toward him) : Are you one of us, or are you one of our enemies? The Man:   Neither; I am here now as commander of the Eternal’s army. Joshua (falling to the ground) : What is your command for your servant, my lord? The Man:   Take off your sandals, for you are on holy ground. So Joshua did.' Joshua 5:13-15 (VOICE) Whenever you are in God's Will the Glory of the Lord will shine through your efforts.  ' Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power.   Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.   For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.   Therefore put on the full armor ...
